V1.6.0: targets and an attack bar in encounters

- One combatant at a time can be marked as the target with the Target
  button on its card. The DM can mark anyone at any time; a player can
  while their own character is on turn in a battle.
- The target's card is outlined for everyone and names who is going for it.
- While a target is marked the DM gets an attack bar above the list: who is
  attacking whom, the target's AC and HP, the attacker's weapons, spells or
  monster attack, and a box to apply damage or healing straight away.
- The target is cleared when the turn or round moves on, when the encounter
  begins, ends or is reopened, or when the target is removed.
- All packages at version 1.6.0.

+- **Three successes:** Stable. The tallies are cleared.
+- **Three failures:** Dead.

+- **Massive damage:** if a blow leaves as much as the character's max HP
